SUMMARY

The USS Enterprise sustained damage from an ancient interstellar probe, which was determined to be of terrestrial origin. Lieutenant Spock led the investigation, revealing that the probe was actually an automobile belonging to Elon Musk, launched during the early years of Star Fleet Command. This incident raises concerns about the preservation of historical artifacts and the effectiveness of the ship's AI crash avoidance system.

"Officer Sulu, what's our status?"

"Damage to the engine sir."

"By whom, the Romulans?"

"We don't know sir."

"Was anyone hurt?"

"No sir."

"Lieutenant Spock, lead a team to investigate this incident; I want a full report for Star Fleet Command."

"Yes sir."

Lieutenant Spock conducts the investigation. An unknown object is discovered to have punctured the USS Enterprise, causing some damage to the vessel. Upon analysis and research of this object, Lieutenant Spock determines that it is of terrestrial origin.

"Strange..."

"There's more"

"What is it Spock?"

"It appears that this object is an ancient interstellar probe launched in the early years of Star Fleet Command."

"You mean..."

"Yes sir, we've been hit.."

"By ourselves?"

"Yes sir."

Better still. "The object seems to be an automobile. History says it belonged to a man named Elon Musk."

So much for the AI crash avoidance system.
Doesn't even work on the USS Enterprise.
